    President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday suspending
    security clearances of Mark Pomerantz and those who work at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison. The order also restricts government access
    to lawyers and employees at the New York-based law firm.

    "Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to suspend
    security clearances held by individuals at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton
    & Garrison LLP (Paul Weiss) pending a review of whether such clearances
    are consistent with the national interest," the White House said in a
    fact sheet.

    Pomerantz oversaw the Manhattan District Attorney's Office's
    investigation into Trump and his business practices.
